What Constitutes Good Breeding-The
Choice OF Bridal Gifts.

What Constitutes Good Breeding-The
Choice OF Bridal Gifts.
The sending of bridal gifts requires dis
cretion and knowledge Of some points in
volved. A card should always go with the
gift, for II the presents are displayed the card
Is laid ON the aft TO which 1t belongs, or
placed with others on a card basket
In making choice OF gifts it must be re-
membered that there are some a gentleman
may not send 10 a bride. There can be no
catalogue Of such things, but good sense will
suggest whether any article is appropriate or
not. For instance, would a pair Of ivory
backed hair brushes be appropriated Most
assuredlv not. Indeed, IL would be hardly
appropriate for a man 10 send any article OF
wearing apparel, or anything that may be
used with the toilet, though perhaps there
might, in some cases, be exceptions to this
rule, considering the articles and the init
macy Of the sender.
Unless You are ON terms OF intimacy, or a
relative, gifts should be chosen resher for
their ornamental than their useful qualities.
A vase or picture is far more in taste from
a comparative stranger than would be a table
article or piece Of jewelry. These are APP
propriafe for relatives.

"Boys, wen fix 'em," said one of the Bam-
berry brothers.
During the day they built the sheep pen
much higher, so that no dog could jump out
of 1t. Then they made n slanting bridge on
the outside, so that a dog could walk up it
and jump over into the sheep pen But no
dog alivo could jump up that wall TO get out
again, and the rails were so close together
that even pup could not crawl through
They put their live sheep into close shed and
left the dead ones lying in the old pen. The
trap was just the kind that the pioneer farm
ers used to set to capture wolves.
In the morning, as truly as the world, there
were twenty-three dogs in the pen. Some Of
them were very aristocratic, blooded dogs,
belonging TO the wealthiest people of the
neighborhood. These high-toned dogs looked
as Sinking and ashamed as possible. Their
owners looked no less 50 when they came 10
claim their pets You see them leading the
guilty animals away, the very fellows they
had declared TO be so good and honest. The
Bamberry boys charged every owner S. be
fore he got his dog, and thus they received
money enough to pay damages. Some Of
the beasts never were claimed and these were
shot All day people around about came to
look at the dog show and everybody who
\iIln't have a dog in it had a good long
'l6ugh 1t was sight TO see.

THE DOG SHOW.

So they got no satisfaction. At length the
brutes one night jumped over the bars into
their sheep pen, and tore the Threats and
killed some of the most valuable of their
flock. This was too much. The boys almost
shed tears at sight of the pretty, mangled
lambs lying dead.
At length one of them said; Boys, we'll
fix 'em.n
There is something strange about the way
dogs attack focks A sheep killing rage
seems to possess them, just as if they were
dog crazy. While the spell lasts, they go
about neighborhood in packs, like wolves,
and fall on one flock after another, sei2ing the
defehseless sheep, throwing them down, tear
ing open their threats, and sucking their
blood A dog is only civilized wolf any
how.

yichy After Dinner.

An aid TO digestion very much used in Eng
land IS the drinking after meals especially
after a hearty dinner, oil. vichy water. Vichy,
carbonic, seltzer and other waters come in
siphon bottles, and are very convenient to
keep in the house. A half glass after dinner,
IL one feels slight indigestion, will often
afford relief. People sometimes are fond Of
drinking these waters, and it has become the
custom in England to drink nothing but vichy
after dinner

and not the listener should make the apology.
The polite world has always been troubled
to frame proper method Of asking for
repetition, without being successful.
aWhatf' Is too short and harsh. "Howl" Is
cxecrable. The best method is TO adopt the
conventional method of tho times, which at
least has the merit of enabling one to as
simulate and not be conspicuous for differing
from others

SHEEP KILLING DOGS.

Mr.. j. II. Trowbridge tells in the last st.

about how some clever boys caught lot Of
sheep killing dogs.
The boys made good deal of money out
Of their flock md II was n source of great
pleasure TO them besides. But the third year
the dogs got to killing their sheep They
knew it must be their neighbors' dogs, but
when they mentioned the subject to dog
owners, every man was up in arms at once.
His dog was just the incest, sweetest, honestest
creature in the world. He'd no more kill a
sheep than he'd fly.

Withdrawing Backwards.

In retiring from rom after visiting ladies,
the most common practice among well bred
people seems to be to retire with tho face
towards tho persons in the room until reach
ing the door. But this is quite inconvenient
when the distance is long. A painful sight is
to see a bashful man try to back out of a room
and smash some delicate and valuable article
in doing so, from not having eyes in the back
of his head A hostess would infinitely prefer
to have guest turn his back for part of the
way to having her bric-a-brac demolished

HEALTHFUL INFORMATION.
Things Good to Know and Worth Keep
Ing In Mind.

A new process in dentistry has been sue
cessfully tried. 1t is making n new socket
in the solid BONE or where tooth has once
been, but where the bone has become solid,
and implanting tooth from another mouth,
or the same mouth, in the socket.
1t is based on the theory that If the men,
brane which originally surrounded the tooth
still adhercs 10 it, it will bo revitalized when
the tooth is implanted in the new socket 1t
is said that there are cases where adhesion
has h.. ''plete that they would defy
an expe which were the inp,di ed
and which were the original teeth.

Conform to Others.

After all true politeness consists in conform
ing SO far as possible to the habits Of others.
Persons have been known, when sitting at the
table with host or a guest, to eat with the
knife rather than offend companion by
showing superior good breeding when tho
companion used the knife in this manner.
This is going trifie too far, but the error is
in the right direction.
